My boyfriend & I are discussing the purchase of new wheels to accommodate our growing family. We are lean towards a Mini Cooper Countryman. So, what's everyone driving?
This discussion has been closed.
Re: Mommy Mobile
Eventually we will want something bigger, but we haven't talked much about that yet.

H has a Mazda 3 5-door and we will not be able to fit two car seats in the back- We are tall people, and I barely fit in the passenger seat with a RF car seat behind me. DS will have no leg room behind H if his seat is put there. Plus I really loathe the car in general.

I only have two right now as a sold one due to finances last year. I have an overo paint-quater horse mare and a tobiano paint gelding who has the medicine hat markings along with a blue eye. I'll have to edit the post tomorrow and share a couple pictures of them

I have a 08 yaris and H has a '11 Lancer. I'll change my car when I switch jobs and going for an SUV. All this snow up here in Canada in the winter, I don't want to stay stuck anywhere.
We had a Ford Escape, which we traded in because it was just too expensive (gas + car payments were over half my income each month) and bought a Ford Focus. The Focus was getting up in mileage and we were thinking of starting a family and frankly that car had NO room for legs in the back.
Price + space + quality we could not do better than the Kia Soul. There is SO MUCH ROOM in that thing it's ridiculous. (And the 'truck space' seems minimal but the seats 60/40 fold down - so if you have a lot of stuff, or big stuff, you can have the car seat on one side and the other side folded down.)
That said, the look of the car isn't for everyone but the Sportage is nice too and a little more...normal looking lol - and we would have gotten one but I was driving a lot so we thought we should get the gas savings instead of the looks.
FORGOT - It had a 5 year bumper to bumper warranty so literally any problems that we had (all minimal) were fixed free. One headlight got moisture in it, replaced for free. One roof track (looks only) got dented and was pulling up (because squirrels dropped huge nut things on my car) replaced for free.
